- And here's some good news (if it's true, that is):
-
- A jury cleared Tom Knox when he stood trial recently, charged with assaulting -
-
- the chief of police in Visalia. Karma Tsochef took the stand as a witness
- for the defence, apparently.
-
- I'm not too sure about that one: it came via the Cruz pre-release rumour
- service. Some of their stuff is followed by hasty retractions.
-
- The same source also claims that Andy Roy was caught short a "a recent
- contest." Rather than locate the men's room, he relieved himself with the
- help of a big plastic bottle. He then went up to the balcony and tipped
- the lot over the crowd.
-
- Actually, that's nothing: at a lame "big" contest which took place in
- London last summer, the organiser messed the skaters around so much that
- a whole bunch of irate competitors filled SEVERAL bottles by the same
- method, and totally soaked the guy. What's more, they tipped off the tv
- crew who were recording the event - so the whole thing ended up on tape.
